Lunge - straight for the younger one. The predator - unseeable in the dark, but definitely a four-legged beast - crouched to jump, his muscular legs springing into action. Then, he was sailing in the air, coming closer to Alya....
Only a moment's warning would have been given, for as the beast had crouched to jump, it had made the tiniest of sounds, displacing a few rolling pebbles with its paws.

Not discerning where the sound of crunching pebbles had come from, Nam once again called for Rosemary, hoping she wasn't slipping or getting stuck further.

Alya heard the slipping of the stones and turned towards the noise, she gave a scream as something landed over the top of her

Nam's attention immediately averted, he screamed Alya's name, swiveling to spring into the side of the creature with all the force he could muster in hopes of knocking it off of the young girl.

The creature... was still dark. It couldn't be discerned, its identity - no, wait. It wasn't too dark to see, it was that the creature - a large wolf - was too darkly-colored to see.
The wolf rolled off of Alya, then snapped at Nam with slobbering teeth.

"I'M A LITTLE BUSY AT THE MOMENT!" He yelled, not for a millisecond taking his eyes off of the beast. His diaphragm not working well enough to shout out the random obscenities he was thinking (or not, given the situation), his stomach tightened as he attempted to fight the wolf to give himself better stature. The wolf's saliva flicked and dropped disgustingly onto Nam's face and upper body, though he took no notice.
(Eww)

Alya scampered away as soon as the wolf had rolled off her and hid behind Kryxel as soon as possible, scared out of her mind

A whimper filled the caves, then the wolf was no more. No singed fur or burnt flesh remained. No charred bones, no odorous (if good, ax-smelling) remains.
The creature was gone completely, the sound it had emitted the only trace of its existence.
Rosemary finally managed to wriggle through her hole. She thought about calling up to the others that she was through, but then thought better of it.
"Alya? You up there...?" She called softly, hoping to gain only the girl's attention.

kryxel laughed at the tense silence "well now we have been able to beat one...how many more are there?"
